To redeem himself and gain full control over his powers, Miles begins his training with The Phoenix Senshi – a veteran superhero who fought during World War III. However, in order to truly become a superhero, Miles must dig down into the core of who he is and rediscover his reasons for why he wants to be a hero, if he even still wants to be one at all.
